Open-source, easy to define new processes, and easy to transition to new business process definitions
We're trying to put the people from the business to do it. We are using APIs, and we have open APIs to define our APIs and the request-response that each call requires and sends. So, to base the mapping on that, there was nothing to help. I know that with some tools, such as Oracle tools, you can see the input and expected output. With drag and drop, you can take one property from the left and drag it to the right, and it does all the mapping itself, but that's not the case with Camunda. So, for me, this is something that can be improved. If you stick to the basics, it can be pretty easy. If you need to extend, as we did with custom plugins, this is rather hard because the documentation is not that great. Everything is there. It is an open-source tool, and we had access to classes and documentation, but there was no great explanation on how to use them. There were also not many examples. It was pretty hard to go this way, but if you stick with the basic functionality, it is a great and easy tool. Another thing that we struggled with has already been fixed. They now offer a SaaS version of Camunda. We struggled a little bit with how to deploy Camunda in our infrastructure. The way it was designed was that the database can easily become a performance bottleneck. It is something that they could improve. They can provide more examples of how to implement a scalable solution using Camunda.

An easy-to-use solution with great integration
It involves a lot of investment. The learning curve is not similar to other products, like K2. Regarding the user interface, I have to access workflows and define and manage the processes on the variant of a Windows application, which is not accessible if you don't have access from the client to install it on the workstation. And most of the solutions we're currently evaluating are web-based. Our customers and developers have complained that the UI is a little bit confusing. It has lots of elements. It's not user-intuitive compared to other products. Other than that, the licensing model is our main concern.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The graphical interface is very beneficial."
"The most valuable feature of Camunda Platform is its Microservices architecture, which is easily integrable with APIs."
"It has an open BPM"
"Provides an easy way to integrate with the architectural environment."
", Camunda can be a powerful tool to work with when used in an optimized and well-implemented manner."
"When I compare it with other BPM tools, like IBM, it is great, open source, and free when you use the community version."
"Having knowledge of the BPM and monitoring process has proven to be very beneficial, as I am currently engaged in documenting processes for Clientele."
"It is open-source. It supports microservice orchestration. This is what we are really interested in. We can customize our products depending on the use cases."
"It's very simple to use and the integration features between Java and other services within the workflow are very easy."
 

Cons

"The only drawback is the time that it takes to have a complete set of workflows implemented on the Camunda platform."
"Collaborations and process documentation in Camunda Platform are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"I don't like the UI of the Camunda Platform, I have found the Signavio solution to be much better for me to create the process designs and execute them. Additionally, I have found the tools in the Camunda Platform are not compatible with some of my other tools. They should improve this in the future."
"I think it would be important to internationalize the Cockpit and the Admin as well as with the Tasklist."
"The primary issue regarding the Camuto platform is its high cost of training. This is why I haven't discussed it extensively, as compared to other products that are more affordable in terms of developer training."
"In the latest version, there are certain workflow nodes that are missing. Camunda should bring those back, or rather, develop them quickly."
"If Camunda could develop something that creates user forms that would be a great feature to have. They also need to improve the UI."
"The support offered by the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Our customers and developers have complained that the UI is a little bit confusing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay for the license of this solution annually."
"It is less cost-prohibitive than other solutions on the market. This solution was in our price range."
"We are using the paid edition because there is no separate support and service license yet. We are yet to find a suitable licensing model for Camunda because we only use the engine, and we have implemented our solution around Camunda Cloud. So, we are mainly interested in the support and service, and that's what we mainly use in the paid edition."
"We're using the open-source version for now."
"The cost of this solution is better than some competing products."
"While the license isn't budget-friendly, careful consideration and calculated planning for a significant number of licenses can make it more cost-effective."
"I use the open-source free version."
"When compared with the proprietary products, the pricing costs are much less, even though it is an enterprise edition."
"The price could definitely be lower."
